    the module is located under the dash above the gas and brake pedals. my manual goes through alot and shows it taps power from everything. there is also a scan tool that is used to do the message center and related tests/diagnostics.

      Are your Headlight Doors Vacuum Operated like my 77 was? Or are they Electric on the newer ones? Just wondering why they didn't close up after you had started it.

      Awesome car man. I hope to see it cruising around town this summer

            I've got rust on that same spot on every bumper I've had, except for my Vic. Whats the deal?

                Well I found the problem with the breaks, The main break line running front to back was already replaced, then I noticed on the right side of the diff there was no break line at all going to the break cylinder. So im going to order 2 new rear break cylinders and put new break lines across the rear diff and then the breaks should be back in proper working order after I bleed them.
                The gas tank will be easy to change to, as the bolts are nice and clean and shouldent snap. As long as lincoln and grand marquis use the same size gas tank im all good, as the gas tank I am putting in is out of a 84 grand marquis. Both are carburated.
